#1 So, Chicago's about to look back on the 'Ol Bug Eyes' era as the good old days? Sux to be you.

#2 Sometimes I wonder, were today's shit-hole cities (Pelosi's (née D'Alesandro) Baltimore, Rizzo's Phiily, Daley's Chi-town) all better off under the Mob back in the day? Do we prefer today's crime over yesteryear's? Perspective.

They left Chicago in 1982. Eventually, so will everyone else.

#4 If there wasn't a clearer signal to get the heck out of Chicago (and Illinois in general...lovely taxes), it was Lori Lightfoot's reign. Of course, those who voted for her (and her successor) can stay.

#5 Do we prefer today's crime over yesteryear's?

Zombieland continues in Philadelphia as 'dealers and addicts' are seen sleepwalking down a side street in crisis-hit Kensington neighborhood where fentanyl and 'tranq' overdoses run rampant

#6 HOMESICK SNOWBIRD...

In Venice, Florida last week, there was a bumper sticker on a parked car that read: "I miss Chicago.”

Someone broke the window, stole the radio, shot out all four tires, added a Biden bumper sticker and left a note that read: "Hope this helps."

At least you could deal with the Mob somewhat rationally; not these assholes.

#8 Chicago, proof that voter stupidity has no limits. The new guy will ride the race card into deeper penetration of the federal pocket. The sad reality will be the story next year about the inner city being a food/shopping desert, as retail and grocery outlets will be reduced to the stop-and-rob level of high risk corner markets.

#9 Einstein (apocryphally) said it was insanity, not stupidity, to do the same thing over and over and expect a different result each time.

Of course, quantum mechanics sort of makes that hazy now...
